Racing Post verdict
Third-partyOCEAN'S BREATH is the pick in a tight renewal, having landed two of his last three starts, including at today's trip last time, and there remains more to come for a yard in good order. Given a clear lead in the pace, he could prove difficult to peg back. Suzie Songs, who landed a Group 3 contest as a two-year-old, cannot be ruled out despite a below-par reappearance, while L L Koulsty, successful in a handicap last time in form that has since worked out well, and Frescobaldi also feature among the dangers. Confidence is low in a competitive field, but OCEAN'S BREATH is the selection.
